In order to comply with Brazilian tax regulations, we’ll ask hosts, co-hosts and guests who are residents of Brazil and/or have listings in Brazil, to provide information that we are required to confirm. Eligible users, determined automatically by Airbnb, will be prompted to submit their CPF (Cadastro de Pessoas Físicas) and other relevant information.
To avoid any restrictions on payments, listings, or accepting new reservations, please set aside time to complete the required information in one go—once you start, you’ll need to finish the process, including any additional requests for information. In addition, the information you provide will be used to verify your identity, a requirement for hosting or booking on Airbnb.
If you start but do not complete providing all required details (including any follow-up requests), your identity verification status may be lost and your listing calendars will be blocked until the process is finished; however, your existing reservations will not be affected.
This article applies exclusively to hosts operating as individuals. If you host as a business, no action is required from you at this time.
For the purposes of determining if you’re hosting as a business or as an individual in Brazil, consider the following. Know that if you host in locations outside of Brazil, like in the European Economic Area, other factors should be considered to determine how you host.

You’ll need to complete the following steps::
Identity verification: We’ll collect and use certain personal information, such as your legal name, address, phone number or other contact details using trusted third-party sources or your government ID. Once the identity verification process is initiated, failure to complete the necessary steps will result in the inability to book new reservations. Find more information about how to provide your taxpayer information.
We process the information we collect to meet our obligations under Brazilian tax laws and regulations and to carry out identity verification, as described in our Privacy Policy.
If you’ve made an error, you can delete your taxpayer information and add new information. This will not delete your listings, but will require you to reverify before continuing to host or book on the Airbnb Platform.
Yes, if you are a host in Brazil, the tax regulation applies to you, regardless of where you reside.
Airbnb is required to collect and verify your taxpayer information, and will confirm that it matches the account information used to verify your identity. If you change or update your account information, we may require you to re-verify your identity to book, host, or list a new property.
We need to collect and verify your full legal name, CPF, and date of birth. You will also need to provide your residential and, if applicable, business address. To confirm your identity, you may also need to provide a government-issued ID and a selfie.
Make sure that your CPF number is entered correctly and matches the legal name associated with your account. Here are a few suggestions:
Make sure the CPF you submitted includes the legal name that matches the CPF you provided.
If you attempted but did not finish providing the required details, including any follow up requests for additional information, you may lose your identity verification status, and the calendar for any listings you host will be blocked until you complete the process. Your existing reservations won’t be affected.
